About This Item
Slim Twig is the name of a man, not of a band - though he has performed in many a group, some under his own moniker. Boasting a catalogue several under-the-radar releases deep, the Toronto native lays claim to a tremendously original work with his orchestrally-inflected, art rock album, a Hound at the Hem. Self-produced in the fall, 2010, Hound is a suite of narrative songs thematically inspired by Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. DFA is privileged to re-issue this album in advance of the of Twig's newest works. Album Tracks 1. Heavy Splendour 2. Clerical Collar 3. Widow Were You Younger 4. Shroud By the Sheetfull 5. All This Wanting 6. Hover on a Silver 7. Maintain the Charade 8. Blonde Ascending (Come Into the Clatter)
